...parental enforcer of arbitrary limitations.The second objectionable suggestion of the draft report is the elimination of the online event registration system. The subcommittee justifies this change by insisting that it will emphasize face-to-face contact between students and College staff. While the intention may be good, the logic is built on nothing better than quicksand. Apparently, the Subcommittee believes that because they have relatively free days, we do as well. Unfortunately, those pesky things called classes stand in most students way from being able to have hour-long sessions of filling out forms under the watchful gaze of college...
...tryin? to be dramatic, but I would rather be shot in the face than eat this food.? Why shouldn?t she stick to her diet of Dr. Pepper, Pringles, TastyKakes, Red Bull and the occasional cigarette? And when threats don?t work, Angie tries logic: ?There?s a thing called being too healthy. That?s what killed Bruce Lee.? (It was more likely a brain aneurysm.)

If one argues that abortion should be safe and legal, then he cannot, in the same breath, insist that he hopes abortion is also rare...
...Israeli allergy to peaceful negotiations. This is the antithesis of the prevailing situation: It is Hamas who refuses to negotiate peace with Israel because its stated goal is the elimination of the Jewish State, a position repeated frequently by its leaders and adherents. Carter’s logic dictates that Israel should be willing to negotiate its own existence with Hamas while Hamas should be allowed to target Israeli civilians unimpeded. Were Hamas willing to end its boycott of Israel, end its call for genocide, recognize Israel’s right to exist in peace with its Arab neighbors...
...smoke monsters and polar bears come in a la “Lost” and we discover that the characters are sitting on a restless volcano, we know that this play is veering off the path of realism. The play pokes fun at its own lapses in logic, and the actors make their characters so much their own that the audience is able to buy into it all. For a play that gives tribute to television shows such as “Lost” and “Survivor,” such indulgence is fitting?...
